Londontec City Campus: The socially committed campus

By Gayani Perera

Established in 1989, Londontec has experienced a phenomenal growth from being an institution providing courses on electronics to a campus offering world class degrees, Edexcel BTEC HND and diplomas. Despite its growth the campus has been consistent with its founder's vision of providing education to satisfy the needs and wants of society. At present Londontec can proudly claim that it offers one of the most recognized British degrees in Sri Lanka at an affordable cost.

The campus's close liaison with world class education providers such as the University of Sunderland which is a government university of the United Kingdom, British Edexcel BTEC, the British Computer Society (The Charted Institute for IT), University of Cambridge Local Examination Syndicate and the Australian Computer Society have made it possible for the campus to provide high quality education programmes.

The London Scholarship programme, unlike the dubious programmes offered by some other institutes, is a genuine effort to give an opportunity to discerning young children to learn Information Technology. Since 1993, Londontec has awarded full scholarships every year to the children of disabled war heroes through the Rehabilitation Director Board.

British Edexcel BTEC HND in Computing
Edexcel is one of the leading examination and awarding bodies in UK and throughout the world, providing a wide range of qualifications. Edexcel qualifications are accepted by over 115 universities around the world including Australia, UK and USA. Edexcel International is a leading provider of academic and vocational qualifications. The BTEC HND course of studies from Edexcel paves the way to produce professionals in Information Technology of quality and standard, which is entirely different to the traditional system of education.

Edexcel qualifications endorsed by employers and educationalists meet the highest quality and standards set by the UK government's independent bodies established to set, select and maintain standards. The success of their high and esteemed quality was the result of the stringent scrutiny of the activities and operations of their centres and their approval.

The BTEC HND in computing provides education and training for a range of careers in computing and also provides opportunities for learners to develop a range of skills and techniques that are essential for successful performances in working life. This course is a globally recognized qualification which enriches the students with a professional approach in IT enshrined in them thus paving a path for attaining higher education.

Geared for the working professional
Londontec degree courses are truly designed for the working professional. Understanding the need for individuals to balance their work life, family life and academic life, Londontec has designed its courses in such a manner, where students have the ability to attend classes only on Sundays.

A degree in one year!
Having understood that many students have part qualifications such as HND, BCS Diploma, TAFFE, NIBM, NIBM Higher Diploma, SLIIT Diploma, HID or equivalent academic qualifications etc., Londontec offers its Top-Up degree programme which enables students to complete their degrees within one year. Today a degree has become a bare necessity, therefore Londontec offers students the unique opportunity to complete their academic life and achieve their dreams.
